Car wont start
I changed the timing belt on My 95 honda civic everything seemed to have went well but the car cranks but still wont start.it sounds like its not catching fire.i checked for a spark and i see a little one now. before i replaced timing i saw no spark. Its a manual shift, 1.6 liter v-tech. No engine codes are popping up. Fuel is coming thru filter. Any suggestions? Im in dire need of help!

Re: Car wont start
Do you hear the pump prime when you turn the key to the run position? Make sure you have pressure in your fuel rail (I know on my Mustang I have a relief valve that I can just depress on one of the supply lines leading into the rails, I don't remember/know if Hondas have this but I'd imagine there's something similar).
Make sure the engine is timed correctly. It sounds like you're getting fuel, and if you're getting spark it's unlikely (but not impossible) that it's the distributor/wireset/plugs.
Could be the injectors, but timing is the first thing I'd check.
